The device supports the FAT and the exFAT file systems for memory cards. When
inserting a card formatted in a different file system, the device will ask to reformat
the card or will not recognise the card. To use the memory card, you must format it. If
your device cannot format or recognise the memory card, contact the memory card
manufacturer or a Samsung Service Centre.
Frequent writing and erasing of data shortens the lifespan of memory cards.
When inserting a memory card into the device, the memory card’s file directory
appears in the
My Files
SD card
folder.

Do not remove external storage, such as a memory card or USB storage, while the
device is transferring or accessing information, or right after transferring data. Doing
so can cause data to be corrupted or lost or cause damage to the external storage or
device. Samsung is not responsible for losses, including loss of data, resulting from the
misuse of external storage devices.
Formatting the memory card
A memory card formatted on a computer may not be compatible with the device. Format the
